ber plate, which is inclosed hy the niet-al sole late and the smoothbottom face-oi the woo en club head.

In golf clubs having wooden heads it is desirable to have the medianline of the head permanently marked to guide the stroke of the user. Tothis end I place on the top face of the club head a line of tacks 10extending transverse of the club head, which guides the user in strikingthe ball either in full or light strokes thereon. WVhile I have referredmore particularly to golf clubs having Wooden heads, it is apparent thatthe invention is equally applicableto heads formed of other lightmaterial such for instance as aluminum, where the head would need theaddition of further weight to make it effective.

What I claim 1s: 1. A golf club having a Wooden. head and a metal soleplate,' said sole plate being provided with pockets adapted to be filledWith iiliettl plugs for varying the Weight of the having a sole plate,said sole plate being provided with a row of pockets adapted to 2. Agolf club having a Wooden' head and head.

1 3. A golf club having a Wooden head and having a metal hase plateprovided with an upwardly extending lug, said lug having pockets toreceive the plugs l'or varying the vweight oi thehead.

Il. A Agolf club having a wooden head and a metal base plate having aportion of the saine of uniform thickness and another p0rtion of thesaine of increased thickness, said hase plate having in both theseportions thereof a row of pockets to receive Weights for varying theWeight of the head.

5. A golf club having awooden head and a metal hase plate secured to theunder face thereof and having a recess extending along the striking faceof the club and the filling of fiber fitting in said recess and inclosedbetween the wooden head and the base plate.

In,- testimony whereof, I, the said WIL- LiAM ROBERTSON, have hereuntoset my hand.
